Planting & Sowing Instructions:

1. Preparation:

   • Start your White Poinsettia seeds indoors about 8 to 10 weeks before the last expected frost. Use a well-draining seed-starting mix and fill small containers or seed trays.

2. Sowing the Seeds:

   • Sprinkle the seeds lightly over the surface of the soil. Press them gently into the soil to ensure good seed-to-soil contact, but do not cover them completely as they require light to germinate.

3. Germination Conditions:

   • Keep the soil warm, ideally between 70°F to 75°F (21°C to 24°C), and provide indirect light. Moisture is key, so mist the soil to keep it slightly damp, but avoid over-watering to prevent mold or rot.

4. Transplanting:

   • Once the seedlings have grown large enough to handle and the outdoor temperature is consistently above 50°F (10°C), transplant them to their final location outdoors or in pots. If growing indoors, place them in a bright, sunny spot to ensure adequate light for blooming.

5. Care & Maintenance:

   • Water regularly, but allow the soil to dry out slightly between watering to avoid root rot. White Poinsettias prefer slightly acidic soil, so incorporating organic matter is beneficial. Fertilize once a month during the growing season with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.

6. Pruning:

   • For a bushier plant, pinch back the tips of the growing shoots. This will encourage lateral growth and help shape a fuller, more compact plant.

7. Winter Care:

   • In colder regions, move your poinsettia indoors during the winter to protect it from frost. It will continue to bloom in favorable indoor conditions.

Tips for Success:

• Provide your plants with plenty of light, especially during the blooming season, to encourage vibrant flowers.

• Keep an eye on pests and diseases; treat with eco-friendly solutions if needed.

• Allow your White Poinsettia to dry out slightly between waterings to avoid fungal infections.
